Why High-Elo Players Smurf with Sejuani
Low elo players severely underestimate the damage of a full AP/Tank hybrid combo. They respect her tankiness, but they do not respect her burst. Sejuani's W (Winter's Wrath) hits incredibly hard early game, and her E (Permafrost) executes are often unexpected. Furthermore, smurfs abuse her passive to take minimal damage from jungle camps and tower shots, allowing for dives that other junglers simply cannot survive. You control the map not through speed, but through sheer force of presence.
The Level 1 Cheese
First Blood Strategy
The 'Melee Stack' Invade. Sejuani's E passive allows ANY melee ally to apply frost stacks. If you invade with a Sylas, Yone, or Braum, you effectively have a point-and-click stun at level 1. Start Q (Arctic Assault) for the knockup/gap close. Dash over the dragon/baron pit wall or the mid-lane ledge. Knock them up, let your team auto, then E for the stun. It is a guaranteed flash burn or first blood.
The 'Pay-to-Win' Skin Advantage
When They Ban Sejuani
Backup Pick: If Sejuani is banned,
Zac offers similar engage angles.
Amumu offers the 'press R to win teamfight' utility.
Gragas offers the CC/Tank hybrid playstyle.
Rune Setup
Best Runes:
Skill Priority
Order:
W → Q → EMax W first for the clearing speed and massive % HP physical damage. Max Q second for the cooldown reduction on your mobility tool. Max E last, as the stun duration is static (check patch, usually scales slightly but Q mobility is better).
Mastering Sejuani's Kit
Arctic Assault. Dash that knocks up the first enemy hit. Goes over most walls. crucial for creative gank paths.
Winter's Wrath. Two-part flail strike. First hit deals damage, second hit slows and deals massive physical damage. Moves Sejuani slightly.
Permafrost. Passive: Autos/Abilities apply Frost. Active: Stuns a target with 4 stacks. Deals massive magic damage on shatter.
Glacial Prison. Throws a True Ice bola. Stuns the first champion hit. Creates a slowing storm. The stun duration is longer at max range.
Matchup Tips
Hard. He ignores your slows with Highlander. You must hit R or E to stop him, but he can Alpha Strike (Q) to dodge. Ban worthy.
Impossible. He ignores ALL your CC with Ragnarok. Run away.
Vs Sylas
Annoying. He steals your Ultimate and uses it better than you because he has AP ratios. Don't give him a good angle.
The Ego Check
WARNING: Stop overlapping CC! If you hit a massive R stun, DO NOT press E immediately. Wait for the R stun to almost expire, auto-attack to reset the timer, then use E (or vice versa, though R usually locks E). Hitting a target with R prevents E stacks for a duration. Learn your combos. Also, stop engaging 1v5 when your passive is down. You are paper without your Ice Armor.
When to Queue Dodge
Dodge Trundle. He steals your stats with Subjugate (R) and turns you into a negative-armor minion. You cannot fight him. Dodge Vayne. % Max HP True damage ignores your passive completely.
Teamfight Role
You are the initiator. Look for a long-range R (Glacial Prison) to catch a squishy target out of position. If you miss, do not commit suicide. Peel back. In the thick of the fight, focus on hitting W on multiple targets and let your melee carries stack your E. Your goal is to proc Permafrost on the diver to peel your ADC, or on the enemy carry to secure the kill. Be the wall.
The 'Disrespect' Build
Full AP Assassin Sejuani (Mid/Jungle). Rocketbelt -> Stormsurge -> Rabadon's Deathcap. Your R has a massive AP ratio. Q-R-W-E instantly deletes any squishy champion from 100-0. It is hilarious and viable if you are significantly better than your opponents.
Power Windows
Level 3 (Gank window). Level 6 (Ult unlock - massive kill pressure). Warmog's Armor Completion (Infinite sustain & Dive pressure).
Tilt Factor
Freezing the enemy jungler's camp and stealing it in front of them using Smite + E execute massive damage. Dancing (riding the boar) on their corpse. Typing 'Cool off' after a solo kill.
